Drive to chip more dogs

The saying goes, “Dog is a man’s best friend”. However, sadly not all dog-lovers can enjoy the unconditional love of a pooch – disadvantaged persons are often unable to afford the costs that come with keeping one – veterinary bills and getting them vaccinated, for example.

Cape of Good Hope (CoGH) SPCA is raising proceeds for helping disadvantaged animals in dire need of veterinary attention.

According to CoGH SPCA spokesperson Belinda Abraham, “It is absolutely vital to have your pets vaccinated in order to protect them from potentially fatal diseases such as Canine Distemper or Parvo Virus. By assisting disadvantaged pets they receive much-needed vaccinations, we can help keep pets across the city healthy as they make use of public spaces.”
